From the listing agent

In the words of Karl Leathley, Bayleys Whangārei

Ignore the rateable value and all online price estimates. If you've been searching for a vacant semi-rural section that promises full freedom to do as you please, look no further. Comprising 1,012 sqm (more or less), this is an incredibly rare opportunity to develop a vacant city fringe section located in the heart of a sought-after rural community. • Ideal site for a relocatable character home • No restrictive building covenants • A unique section with a gentle contour • Freehold Title Superbly located less than 20 minutes from Whangarei CBD - as well as Marsden Cove, One Tree Point, and Northport, this is an increasingly popular suburb for buyers desiring flexibility with both work and leisure alike. For further information or to arrange your inspection, contact Karl Leathley today.

Too far away to matter: nearest powerline 1.0 km.

Distances are from the parcel centroid to Topo 1:50k features (LINZ); site aspect is approximate, from the 1m LiDAR contours. Road frontage is a proxy — centreline intersection with parcel boundary, not a legal access measure. Confirm setbacks with a district-plan check before purchase.
